Geog 1030- Introduction to Earth & Environmental Science
Lab Syllabus FALL 2003

Below is a tentative syllabus for lab exercises and quizzes. It is possible
changes may be made later if the lab assignments get out of sync with lecture.
As much as possible we will try and see that you have been exposed to the
material in lecture before you have it in lab. Keep up on your lecture
readings before coming to lab. You should bring your text, lab manual, paper,
pencil and a calculator to lab each week. All other material will be
provided. For six labs we will be providing supplementary lab
exercises in class. REMEMBER ALL LABS ARE DUE AT THE END OF THE WEEK AFTER THEY ARE ASSIGNED SO YOU HAVE UP TO TWO WEEKS TO COMPLETE THEM. YOUR LAB ASSIGNMENTS AND QUIZZES WILL COUNT FOR 22% OF YOUR TOTAL GRADE
